I've had a lot of losses trading on my own... I trade ok on demo but I think the real market is being manipulated... Can anyone help me or at least tell me what I'm doing wrong?

[Dannyholt]

Dividends are what got me into investing in the stock market. The thing to me is, if you invest and have other income outside of dividends then you will be able to live off dividends without selling. Which means you can pass that on to your kids which will give them a leg up in life. Have over $600K in my portfolio as I bought a lot of dividend stocks before, I'm buying more now, and I will buy more when it drops further.

Tom Lee tactical advise: buy when low, buy when high, buy in the middle, buy while sleep, buy while awake.

Is now a good time to buy stocks? I understand that many people are claiming that stocks are currently undervalued. However, I am curious about the timeframe for the market to bounce back. While there are strategies available to navigate the current market conditions, these strategies may not be easily accessible to the average person. Should I consider investing my money in alternative options instead?

[Rochelletrem]

I have a 3 fund portfolio consisting of 33% S&P, 33% Total stock, and 33% international. I feel a need to focus on complete growth so I went 100% stocks, but does the SP500 and TSM overlap too much to make sense holding both? However I’ve been in the red for a month now. I work hard for my money, so investing is making me a nervous sad wreck. I don’t know if I should sell everything, sit and just wait but watching my portfolio of $450k dwindle away is such an eye -sore.

[miawhitlock]

Tom what can I do? I have been disabled since 2009 and I am 58 years old at the verge of retirement. My portfoliio of $750k is down to $492k, How can I profit from the present market", I mean I've heard of people making upto $250k in couple weeks during this crash and I'd like to know how.

[stephaniestella]

I agree the stock market is a very good way to make passive income. I have heard of several investors who were making more than $40k a month from the market. I'm ready to go into the market now, but I'm careful to not make a mistake. Or are there are safe bets?

[terryhall]

This is why I always tell people to make more thorough inquiries before putting your money somewhere or better still, get the services of an expert (that way, you give little room for error and get tailored investments). Made my first million late last year this way at the peak of the market collapse. Good luck!

[CRYPTO-FEVER]

Tom Lee is simply a savage at what he does. He stood alone and put his reputation on the line when every other analyst was calling for doom and gloom for this year. Tom Lee has gained my respect and many others im sure, He's very smart and knows his history constantly backtesting with historical data leaving bias and feelings out of the analysis, this guy is a genius when he talks I listen.

[farhaanchy]

one of the very few who doesnt fear monger....love his attitude...only person in cnbc I listen to...

[annechou]

I found Tom Lee is the most clear in mind so far, I don’t understand how he trying to put him down.
Tom, thanks for your insight always! All the rest is following the wind to talk, you are the only one willing to give true advice!

[acesfullmike]

Tom Lee not only right on the call but had the nerve that was required to make it, congratulations to him.

[ThomasShelby-xzfk]

Say what you want about him. He is right a lot. He was right last week with his call.

[radigeorgiev]

Tom Lee has successfully predicted 40 of the last 2 bull markets.

[mikeflair]

Tom Lee is a permabull in a world of permabears. Like the only one. The FOMO crowd loves him, the bears and shorties despise him. Right or wrong, Tom Lee is bold and different individual.

[roddywoods]

The crash in everything, stocks, bonds, cryptos, real estate, will end about the time the Dow/Gold ratio is 1:1 or less. That is, the Dow needs to reach the price of an ounce of gold, before we are near the bottom. That is the historical pattern. Note that this can happen with a collapse in the stock market, OR an increase in the price of gold, or some combination of these two things.

[MobBarley]

Great call. He doesn’t always get it right but I really like Tom’s calls

[natureboy]

You mean hes been a perma bull for years and was right once. So now he sees the future!

[massimo_x]

I'm not an expert at stock but I became a millionaire investing in it as a beginner, from what I've witnessed it all comes down to having a financial manger. Thanks to Annietradings, the expert who handles my Portfolio & executes my trades I will be counting my second million from dividend income this year

[spatty]

I love Tom Lee. He relies on numbers, information, and history. He does the homework before sitting down on air.
